    Good afternoon. I can safely say I have wasted my Sunday! I have done nothing apart from read and potter. Luckily that also means not spending anything. Tesco delivered with no substitutions, so that was novel! 
    I’m back to work tomorrow after a week off. I had intended to clean my office, but haven’t, so I’ll have to pile everything up until I get around to it 😖 
    I won the lottery..again..woohoo. Enough for a couple more tickets, but not enough for a glass of champagne...sigh! Maybe next time!
    I tidied my spending money left overs into a pot on Friday night as my spending money weeks run from Saturday to Friday and so far I haven’t dented this weeks £50. I’m hoping to get a few more NSD’s in.
    I haven’t had any side affects from the 2nd vaccination, so that’s good - I didn’t even get a sore arm this time 😁
    I hope everyone is having a lovely Sunday 🧁

    Reading and pottering sounds good :)  Congrats on the lottery wins.

  • Sounds like my ideal Sunday!  Did similar today but also walked the dog! Bit of exercise and now I want to go to bed, so tired.

    Glad that you didn't have any side effects. I said to the House Troll earlier that my arm hadn't been sore this time round.

    Good news no after effects from the vaccine. I’ve got my 2nd one on Tuesday and really hoping I don’t feel like I did the next day after the 1st one. Did you have the AZ? I got 2 numbers on the lottery so have a free lucky dip 🥳🤣

    Thanks everyone. I am rich in diary friends if not in lottery winnings!
    @Sun_Addict I didn’t have any effects the first time either..it was Pfizer I had. MrWW had AZ and was dodgy for both. It really seems to depend on the individual and seems a bit random who suffers and who doesn’t.
    @CRANKY40 glad you were ok with yours too.
    @MrsBrownBear did you walk far? We just went around the garden. After her beach run the other day (you’ll have seen her running-ish on the photo I posted 😬) she won’t be fit for a longer walk for a bit, poor old thing.
    @jwil I hope you got some reading in too.

    Good morning and happy Monday.
    Back to work again today (boo), so just getting up the energy to get out of bed 😬 I bought some kindle books, so now have just £25 of this weeks spending money to last me to Friday. I’ll try not to spend much/any of it so I have a bit left to roll over to my pot like last week. I have enough books to last me all month and next month too, so I have no excuse to buy more! 
    Have a great Monday. I hope your work just zips by and everything goes your way 🍫

    I checked my totals and my loans are now down to £7405.71. I started the year at £10,980.85, but still some way to go to clear them this year. 
    Ah well, onwards and upwards!
